Which data protection laws apply to our company?
It depends on where your users are. Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda each have a data protection law, and most require you to register with the regulator. If you operate in several countries, several laws can apply at once. We'll map this out for you.
What happens if we're not compliant?
Regulators can issue enforcement notices and fines. In Kenya, fines can reach KES 5 million or 1% of annual turnover, whichever is lower, and the ODPC has already fined several companies.
What is an outsourced DPO?
A Data Protection Officer oversees your compliance. Instead of hiring one full-time, you retain us monthly to do the job: keeping records current, handling data requests and advising on new risks.
Can you help us use AI safely?
Yes. We help tech companies build AI features and internal tools, and set up the policies, DPIAs and vendor checks that keep AI use within data protection law.
Do you build websites and software?
Yes. We build websites, web and mobile apps, MVPs and integrations such as M-Pesa, all compliance-ready from day one. Try our free project planner to scope your idea.
How much does it cost?
It depends on your size and needs. We offer fixed-price assessments, fixed-scope projects and monthly retainers. Book a free consultation for a clear quote.
Are you a law firm?
No. We're a technology and compliance consultancy. Where you need a formal legal opinion or contract, we refer you to our partner law firm, which bills you directly.
